Abstract
We previously reported a strong relationship between video‐based objective data (air time and degree of rotation) and subjectively‐judged scores awarded during elite half‐pipe snowboard competitions. Advancements in sport‐monitoring technologies now provide the capacity to accurately and automatically quantify this objective information. This may assist current subjective coaching and competition judging protocols provided the integration process imparts a large element of control to key players within the sport. We therefore recently hosted an invitational half‐pipe snowboard competition (2007 Australian Institute of Sport Micro‐Tech Pipe Challenge) designed to evaluate whether the snowboarding community would embrace a competition where results were in part determined by automated objectivity. We explored the practical, logistical, and technical challenges associated with conducting such an event and evaluated the relationship between subjective judging and results predicted from objective information t...
